The WS 2010 indoor/outdoor sensor system operates exclusively with radio data
transmission. This means that the measuring value transmitters can be placed up
to 100 m from the base station (depending on local conditions, refer to Section 8
‘Range’). Therefore, pay careful attention to the positioning and assembly instruc-
tions concerning these components to ensure the entire system works correctly.
Please note that in order to operate the weather station, at least one radio
sensor is required because the basic unit has no sensor of its own.
2. Preparation for Operation
The outdoor sensors for measuring the wind speed, rainfall and outdoor tempera-
tures and relative humidity are equipped with a solar cell for power supply and
lithium battery for periods of darkness and bad weather.
To protect the valuable battery from total discharge during a longer period of storage
without the solar cell being exposed to light (e. g. in its packing), the power supply
for the initial operation is activated by a small magnet, inserted from the outside.
Therefore, the magnet belonging to the respective sensor should be inserted just
before the outdoor sensor is installed outside.
In order to ensure the unique assignment of sensor data, the basic unit should
only be put into operation after the sensors have all be running for ten minu-
tes.
This is an important point because the sensors operate in a test sttarted mode for
up to ten minutes after the operating power is applied (inserting the magnets in the
outdoor sensors or inserting the batteries in the indoor sensors). During the test
phase, data is transferred in a 4-second cycle instead of a 3-minute cycle.
The outdoor temperature and relative humidity sensors must be addressed accor-
ding to Section 2.3.4.
2.1. Inserting the magnets in the outdoor sensors
In the case of the outdoor radio sensor S 2010, the magnet to activate the system
is inserted in a opening designed for the purpose in the housing cover.
Activating the wind transmitter is also performed by inserting a small magnet in the
opening provided. The magnet holder is located above the retaining tube (opposite
the solar cell).
To insert the magnet in the rainfall measuring system S 2010 R, the upper section
of the casing must be separated from the lower section by pressing it and turning it
clockwise. The housing cover of the funnel integrated in the electronics casing is
equipped with a clip-in holder for the small, round magnet. After pressing the ma-
gnet into the holder, the rainfall measuring system starts to transmit.
